Ha! No I have not tried it. 1st gear is so short and violent I never floor it from a stop. I worry it would overwhelm the trans honestly.
It’s pretty funny when you floor it from a normal cruise however. It pulls pretty hard for a vehicle of its size. It reminds me of a Range Rover...
I think use case is big deciding factor here.
The one thing that bothered me with bigger tires at highway cruise was the constant shifting.
Gears definitely alleviate this issue.
To me - the 8spd and 3.90’s are a great option for anything beyond stock OD tires.
Heck yeah! I originally bought my 2019 for myself as a DD. My wife and kids loved it so much. I found she started to drive it more and more over her car. Her comment was always along the line that it felt so heavy and safe.
I eventually sold her car and gave her mine. I bought my 2015 as it...
I should mention I have a pair of 200’s. The one above is my 2019. I also have a 2015 in magnetic that is of a much lesser build.
Normal driving in town, you can’t really tell much of a difference in the two. Where I do notice a big difference is at highway speeds. The Harrop’ed 19 pulls way...
I am running 8spd. 4.30’s, 34’s
I am also on Harrop. My 200 has been this way since it was nearly new.
With my build, my towing consists of a 26’ trailer pulling a 4-door rzr along with two more four wheelers.
I am able to tow very well in this setup and have been very happy with it for...
Nor did I. I do tow with mine a fair bit and with the mountain passes the added torque is a nice benefit. I didn’t add to make it “fast” but it definitely has helped with towing.
I did regear. Twice actually. First time we went 4.88 and the second time to a 4.30.
No retune necessary on the supercharger. It has run flawlessly for two years now.

Hey there,
I would say it is likely the most meaningful and transformative mod on my rig. It’s most notable on the highway at cruising speeds. The truck never downshifts any more. It just has the power to accelerate. The power delivery is seamless. You hear an audible SC whine above 50%...
We live in Pagosa Springs. We jack around on East Fork Rd which is a trail that takes you up over Elwood Pass and into Platoro, CO. It is quite a lot of fun for a nice day trip.
